With the goal of improving transportation for youth, seniors and persons living with disabilities, Ontario has announced a new pilot grant program. As you know, 11 municipalities were selected in March 2015 to receive up to $100,000 to provide better transportation services through community resources.

As of yesterday we are pleased to share the news that an additional 11 municipalities have been selected to receive funding. The communities of Dryden, Temiskaming Shores, Muskoka, White River, Waterloo, York Region, Caledon, Peel, Hamilton, Northumberland and Lennox-Addington will be receiving up to $100,000 for their respective projects.

“The government of Ontario is happy to help municipalities provide more transportation options to their residents. Our transportation investments like the Community Transportation Pilot Grant Program help build stronger communities by helping residents stay connected to their communities and maintain an active lifestyle,” says Steve Del Duca, Minister of Transportation.
